RDF Visualizer: A Tool for Displaying, Browsing and Exploring High Density RDF Data

RDF Visualizer is a generic browsing mechanism that gives the user a flexible, highly configurable, detailed overview of a dataset/database encoded in RDF. It is designed and developed to overcome the drawbacks of the existing RDF data visualization methods/tools with an innovative point of view. It allows users with neither previous knowledge of the data structure nor SPARQL skills to navigate and explore the data starting from an element of interest and incrementally explore further the source. The tool is currently used in several national and EU funded research projects such as HELLAS-CH and PARTHENOS and has been tested with large datasets from the British Museum and the American Art Collaborative project.
